Merger proposal

Is it not enough that I have changed the category for this article from "Set theory" to "Forcing"? What benefit is there to merging it entirely into Forcing (mathematics)? JRSpriggs 08:06, 14 November 2006 (UTC) reply

I only proposed it in response to the insufficient context comment. Jason22 23:20, 14 November 2006 (UTC) reply

It was hard tp find much to say so perhaps it should go into Forcing (mathematics). Ansatz ( talk) 05:35, 9 September 2011 (UTC) reply

Insufficient context in introduction?

To my mind, the introduction is fine. Nobody will understand the article who doesn't have a graduate-level degree in mathematics -- I don't think it's possible to write an accessible introduction.

I tend to agree. It actually introduces the term in a loose way before getting into the technicalities. On one hand, one could certainly write a far better introduction, that puts this method into wider context, the big picture if you will. On the other hand, that's something that would only happen in a better written article and most articles on Wikipedia (including many non-technical ones) do not meet that high standard. For a stub, it's certainly ok, so I'm removing the tag.

Name isn't defined here, so perhaps someone could define that and then go on to that. Alternately, maybe we could move this to a 'name' article and redirect 'nice name' there so that there is sufficient information? Chimpionspeak ( talk) 05:44, 30 March 2010 (UTC) reply
